Despite their remarkable achievements in many fields of medicine (eg, surgery, transplantation medicine, etc.) classical medicine often meets their limits with their diagnosis and treatment. The so-called imaging diagnostics (X-ray, CT, PET, MRI, etc.) are very successful in traditional medicine, but are often overrated by the patients in their explanatory power.

Finally, there are a number of health disorders which are very often paradoxically falsely „diagnosed“ in classical medicine. For many diseases or disorders, there are no clear disease names. This is often because not only one, but several diseases may have many causes that are hard to find because of the complexity of metabolic processes.
